Shadow Reports

The purpose of Shadow Reports is to supplement, or "shadow," the report of the government of a particular nation on a reproductive rights issue.

Organizations like the Center for Reproductive Rights and its partners play an essential role in providing credible and reliable independent information to international human rights treaty monitoring bodies regarding the legal status and real-life situation of women and the efforts being made by governments to comply with human rights treaties. Shadow Reports work to supplement, or "shadow," governments' reports on human rights issues by calling attention to their strides, as well as their setbacks.

To learn more about the treaty monitoring bodies and how non-governmental organizations can advance sexual and reproductive rights through submitting supplemental information to the treaty monitoring bodies, please consult:

Shadow Reports are avalible online in PDF format. To view PDF files, you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader, which can be downloaded for free by clicking here.
